About This Home

As of October 2025

Nestled within the exclusive confines of Bright's Creek Golf & Equestrian Community, a 17.91 acre farm offers a rare opportunity for private estate living or development. Beyond the gates, discover three lush fenced pastures, babbling creek, and a large 7.91 acre parcel with stunning vistas. At the heart of the estate stands an 1800s farmhouse. Adjacent to the farmhouse, awaits an outbuilding with a horse stall, two open bays, tack room, and additional storage/office space. With the potential for multiple mini farms or a spacious retreat, prime location, close to the golf course, and versatile layout, this farm presents endless possibilities for those seeking a serene private sanctuary or developers looking to create an array of charming mini estates amidst the natural beauty of Bright's Creek.
